Default KW Rear Strut Nuts - Why 2?

Hey all I am 95% done installing my KW's and I noticed in the rear attached to the strut from KW there are 2 nuts. Once I swap over the stock upper mount what am I do with with these? I'm almost certain you wouldn't use 2 nuts stacked. Which one goes where? I have attached pictures below for reference. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You use both stacked.

Weird....does it matter what order they go in? There is a thicker one and a more flat one.

This sounds like a better idea. I'm not sure why KW s supplies 2 nuts to be stacked...
